Sibusiso earned a place in Year 10 at Durban Science Academy, and the family couldn't be prouder. The school has a long list of things He needs, including a laptop for the robotics course, and a uniform.
The family has few resources; the list costs $250, which is more than they have.

He will take care of everything given and works very hard.
Items on the list: laptop, uniform, shoes, textbooks, calculator and a bag.
Where the $250 goes:
• Laptop: $120
• School uniform and shoes: $65
• Textbooks and workbooks: $40
• Calculator, stationery and a school bag: $25

is there anything that isn't money that would help Sibusiso?
Thank you. If you're in Durban I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Dasmariñas so I could bring a meal.
Rooting for you. As a teacher I love seeing someone work this hard to learn. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings.
